1892 Map of Marsh Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1901

About this map

The high plateau of the Navajo Indian Reservation Line is captured here during an 1883 reconnaissance survey, showcasing a landscape defined by dramatic sandstone formations and essential water sources. Natural landmarks such as the Aga-thla Needle and Cha-ez-kla Rock rise above the mesa lands, while the namesake Marsh Pass serves as a critical corridor through the complex canyon systems of Skeleton Mesa and Pahute Canyon. The reliance on intermittent water in this arid territory is evident through the dense labeling of springs and tanks, including Shan-to Spring and To-hah-le-tis-te Spring. These features, along with the Moencopie Wash and Klethla Valley, trace the traditional routes and geography of the region before more modern infrastructure arrived.
